Sofia Richie has found a chic way to keep her baby daughter, Eloise, entertained — with a pair of high-end ballet flats that come with a hefty price tag. The 26-year-old model recently uploaded a photo on her Instagram Story, showcasing little Eloise playing with her Alaïa studded ballet flats, which retail for an eye-popping $1,290.
In the post, Richie humorously advised her followers, “Wear shoes that keep your child entertained.” The stylish footwear, adorned with brass studs and crafted from luxurious lambskin with a rubber sole, caught the baby’s attention as she curiously grabbed at the shiny embellishments. The scene was set against a stunning beachfront view, with Richie and her husband, Elliot Grainge, enjoying some quality family time on a balcony.
Eloise, just seven months old, may already be following in her mother’s fashionable footsteps. Earlier this month, Richie launched her inaugural baby clothing collection, inspired by her daughter, in collaboration with Amazon. They welcomed Eloise into the world in May, marking a significant moment in their lives.
Richie’s journey into motherhood has not been without its challenges. When announcing her pregnancy, she opted to keep it under wraps initially to safeguard their mental health and privacy as a couple, sharing that the experience was overwhelming. “Pregnancy is really scary,” she confessed in an interview, emphasizing the multitude of milestones and tests that come with it.
The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in France in April 2023, surrounded by A-list friends like Paris Hilton and Cameron Diaz. Grainge proposed with a stunning emerald-cut diamond ring, two years after they went public with their relationship. Recently, TikTok star Jake Shane spoke about how Richie has adjusted to being a new mother, praising her dedication to her daughter and her ability to balance her social life with motherhood.
As she navigates this new role, Richie continues to illustrate that style and parenting can indeed go hand in hand, much to the delight of her fans and followers.
